Psalm 69:14

A Plea For Rescue

¹³
But as for me, my prayer is to You, O Lord, at an acceptable and opportune time;
O God, in the greatness of Your favor and in the abundance of Your lovingkindness,
Answer me with truth [that is, the faithfulness of Your salvation].
¹⁴ 
Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink;
Let me be rescued from those who hate me and from the deep waters.
¹⁵
Do not let the floodwater overwhelm me,
Nor the deep waters swallow me up,
Nor the pit [of Sheol] shut its mouth over me.
